hi
i had braces for 6 years

yes they hurt but its not too bad a a few pain killers will help with the pain, *its more of a ache* and they only hurt when they have been tighted so its not too bad

you cant bite apples as it might snap the wires but you can still eat then you just have to cut them up,
some crips get stuck in the wires and eating toffee isnt a good idea

but im sure your dentist will tell you all this

good luck xxxxWww@Answer-Health@Com

They say not to eat gum but I eat it anyways, nothing has happend if it gets stuck brush it out with a tooth brush!.
(Carry a travel size tooth brush with you in your pocket
incase somthing gets stuck in your braces ! )Www@Answer-Health@Com

they dont hurt but you can get alot of mouth olsers!.
if you want to be a good girl/boy you cant it sugary foods lollies ect!. but i ate everything normal!. when you first get them they will feel really tight so i suggest you eat soft foods like pastas and rice you cant really bite or chew hard foods!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've had braces for a year and a half now!.
Every time you get them tightened they will hurt after about two hours and will be sore for about two weeks!.
Don't eat raw carrots, apples, pop corn or don't chew chewing gum!. Don't eat hard bread rolls or baguettes as you might break the springs!.

Hope this helped!Www@Answer-Health@Com
